README

        
I've been wanting to throw together some non-R code to make basic

slopegraphs for quite some time. Python seems to be a bit

more accessible to folks, so it seemed like the logical choice, 

especially given how spiffy the Cairo framework is.

If you're not familiar with slopegraphs, this effort was designed to

produce something similar to the one found here:

http://www.edwardtufte.com/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=0003nk

Just scroll down a bit to find the graph that looks similar with the

life expectancy data (the "television" data in the "examples" 

directory).

I haven't included much outside of stock 2.7.x libraries, so all you 

should need is Cairo (http://cairographics.org/) to get the code up 

and running on any platform.
